The NBA preseason is upon us, and the regular season is fast approaching with opening night set for Oct. 19, when the Milwaukee Bucks will host the Brooklyn Nets before the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers do battle in the nightcap.

You can find all of our team previews here.

Naturally, we need to forecast the players, too. So here it is: Our CBS Sports Top 100 player rankings for the 2021-22 season. Taking the cumulative results of our seven writers’ individual rankings, this is a look ahead to how these players are expected to perform in the upcoming season. It is not based on last year’s production.

That means rookies are eligible, and indeed No. 1 overall pick Cade Cunningham made our top 100. In fact, he cracked our top 75. With that in mind, let’s get to the list (go easy on the feedback).
